Night Owl Cards

  This isn't a milestone or anything. I don't know what to call it, but I just entered double digits in TCDB trades. I completed trades 10 and 11 in the last few days. I still haven't proposed a trade myself and I'm getting real lazy about that. It's difficult to take the next step when everything is still going so well. I received these five very welcome 1979 Topps football needs for a couple of late '80s baseball cards and one Dodger dupe from last year. Please tell me it's going to be like this forever. These cards came from Mccammon44. I'm a bit torn about whether Joe Ferguson goes in the '79 football set binder or the Bills binder but not as much as if Joe Ferguson was the other Joe Ferguson and it was the Dodgers binder.   These are the results of trade #11, from bearsbaseballcards.

The rehaul now includes the 1973 Topps set and, man, I may have made a wrong call including names with all of the numbers! If that angry mass of text intimidates you and keeps you from sending me anything ever again, I completely understand. The final push came when I received a package in the mail from the mystery sender again. Last year I received a couple cards from him and then now this package that mostly included some 1973s. He apparently completed the '73 set already and was nice enough to send a few extras my way, but I don't know if I believe any of this because there's no name with the note he sent and no return address. Really, I don't mind if you ...
